Various Artists
SFW40472

This anthology of Indian fiddle music of the Americas features performances by Indian musicians from Nova Scotia and Manitoba to North Dakota and Arizona, to Mexico, Peru, and elsewhere in Latin America. Using this most popular of instruments as a way to explore the great variety and creativity of Indian musical traditionsfrom chicken scratch to the indigenous Apache fiddlethis recording expresses the capacity of Native cultures to adapt and synthesize non-Native influences.
